Lesson learned the past few days:
I just keep being reminded that I'm over 35 and that my weight does NOT drop as fast as it used to. It's frustrating to say the least but I guess it comes with getting older, I can no longer just pop whatever I want into my mouth and not worry about those extra pounds.


On my mind:
All the housework I have to muddle through this morning while feeling exhausted.


Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
Psalm 27:13
